https://www.ielts.org/what-is-ielts/iel ... plications1 Both Academic and General Training versions are accepted. The CEFR requirement for each skill must be met.
2 IELTS for UKVI can be used where IELTS Life Skills is required. Test takers would need to a score of 4.0 or above in Speaking and Listening (scores for Reading and Writing will be ignored).
First and foremost is to make sure that the test is still on the list and then simply upload it along with/without covering letter.Shammu2020 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 31, 2020 4:54 pmAlso this doesn’t state what to put into the online app.
If it is prepared on company's official letter head then should be fine. Wet signature most likely due to covid19 won't be enforced/noticed.Shammu2020 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 5:10 pmHi
It’s me again. Just wanted to know if employment letter from the employer through the email is acceptable? Requested employment letter 3 weeks ago and after chasing numerous times yesterday received an email with the employment letter attached but not signed. Even though they said they have posted a copy I really doubt as I didn’t receive it today.
Thanks.

Could any one please let me know if I need to book my biometric appointment now or shall I wait for UKBA email to see if I am exempted?

Hi CullinanCULLINAN wrote: ↑Fri Nov 20, 2020 9:48 pmYou can upload your documents anytime before your appointment. The normal appointments are running at a 28 days lag these days. So if you book tonight, you are looking at 18 Dec, unless you are lucky and there is an earlier cancellation of appointment which you may get. You can upload anytime before appointment. However, the sooner you upload, you can benefit from the new “Self-submission” feature which is optional (your documents are sent direct to UKVI even before biometrics).
After you pay and submit via UKVI account;
You need to create an account on UKVCAS through your further actions page (UKVI account) for next steps i.e. book an appointment and upload documents.

Just keep that one in your possession until if that will be asked by the caseworker.Shammu2020 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 5:39 pmHiseagul wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 5:18 pmIf it is prepared on company's official letter head then should be fine.

I have submitted all documents including the copy of the received from my employer and employment letter - not signed. Yesterday attended my biometric appointment and today I received a signed copy of my employment letter through the post.
Could you please let me have your expert opinion if I should upload this to ukvi through UKVCAS? The letter I received today is dated before my application submission date.
Thanks
Yes pretty usual.It will remain unchanged even until you will receive the decision as per few members. ButShammu2020 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 6:41 pmThanks Seagul, I will wait and see if they ask for it. One more thing, even though I have already attended my biometric appointment, UKVCAS website still showing upload option and my appointment still showing live. It’s not marked as attended or anything? Is that usual?
